Car TalkRe: KNOW YOUR VEHICLE-STOLEN OR SALVAGED? CAVEAT EMPTOR by zinaLPF: 10:55pm On Jul 14, 2010
Pretty cool, thanks for sharing!
I was shopping for a car 2 weeks ago, and I was amazed at how many cars came up with Salvage titles.
Would not be so bad if the sellers disclosed this fact, and if the price reflected the status. Needless to say, I have decided to bring a car in myself.
At least, I am in control of the process from purchase to delivery. What happens to those who do not have that option?
BusinessRe: How Do I Shop In Usa And Receive Goods In Nigeria? by zinaLPF: 6:40pm On Jul 11, 2010
I actually live in the US, so I ship directly to my home. When I am in Nigeria and need an item quickly, I send them to Speedy messengers and they ship to me. The second question is more complicated. Amazon and half.com are not bulk purchase sites. Rather, individuals and small businesses such as yourself resell through the sites. For bulk, you may want to do some more research on google.

Dont forget that books are heavy, and shipping would increase your base cost. Freight forwarders charge by the pound/kilo!
BusinessRe: How Do I Shop In Usa And Receive Goods In Nigeria? by zinaLPF: 4:01pm On Jul 11, 2010
I shop for books all the time, and I find www.half.com and amazon.com to be the best sources.

FamilyRe: Is It Proper To Make My Wife Next Of Kin? by zinaLPF: 1:03pm On Jul 10, 2010
kellysopy:
I got married 2 years ago and my son is almost one. Recently, it stroke my mind that I should make my son next of kin, which used to be my wife. I must state that we are perfectly compatible and have a happy home. I do not intend to discuss this with her.

Do you think this would be a good decision?
Assume that there is an earthquake and your employer for some reason needs to get in contact with your family. Who would you want contacted in case of an emergency? Your 2 year old son or your wife? That person should be your next of kin.

The role of a "Next of kin" is not legally the same as "Beneficiary" for estate planning purposes.
BusinessRe: How Do I Shop In Usa And Receive Goods In Nigeria? by zinaLPF: 12:40pm On Jul 10, 2010
Sounds like you are asking for a logistics company, rather than advice as to how to shop.

The shipping issue I can help you with -
Simply address your goods to yourself, care of a shipping/logistics company, and they will forward to you in Nigeria.

@ Bawomolo -
Absolutely right, I do not know who I am 'talking' to. To me, the poster is just a fellow Nlander who posed a good question.
Your point? huh
FamilyRe: Are Marriage Vows Difficult To Uphold? by zinaLPF: 3:17pm On Jul 08, 2010
For the Christian believer, the rules of marriage (and the attendant blessings) are biblical and therefore unchangeable.
God's principles do not change. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. Unconditional love is (should be) the foundation
of relationships - with spouses, siblings, colleagues, politicians etc. Until you can truly decide that your role in a persons life is
1) to love him/her in spite of him/her and 2), to help him/her become the best person they can possibly be, you are not ready to marry that person.
Tough principles - I am still learning to accept this.

Human beings, after all, are flawed, and prone to sin, selfishness and stubbornness.

@spikedcylinder - be encouraged. You will make mistakes, but go to God first in everything.

[size=13pt]But i have always known Nigeria ladies love clubbing at night . . . . . although , most ladies in Nigeria are too weak to obey their source of comfort in some cases. . . . Clubbing is part of FUN and too sweet to miss . one thing about most Nigeria ladies is that , they carry God in head too much and still , tasting to have pleasure of life by hanging out with friends, drinking and dancing to share the brighter life. . . . wink[/size]

BusinessRe: I Have A Great Idea: Serious-minded Investor Needed! by zinaLPF: 11:13am On Jul 04, 2010
Hi there!
Your request seems to be for an angel investor to front all the initial capital and an "incubator" set up.

In reality, angel investors, where keen on a business idea, require a minimum equity stake of 70%. You may be fortunate to find someone who will do 60%, but that is rare. Also, angel investors DO NOT operate on a P&L basis. They invest based on your business plan and stated requirements, taking an equity stake, so in reality share only in the profits (not losses). For example, assuming in month 3 of operations, you see a loss of N300,000 and your entire operational budget is wiped out. The angel investor WILL NOT usually infuse additional cash to bail you out of a hole (thereby sharing in your loss). Your business plan should have sufficient allowance for operational expenses and market risk.

So really, your offer should read "Equity position, 30:70 (idea originator: Investor)". Now, you may have to reset your expectations and recalculate your position based on this worst case scenario. Then determine if it is still worthwhile at 30% equity. Finally make certain you have a tight business plan that takes at least 6 months of operating expenses (salaries, marketing etc) into consideration. In an environment such as Nigeria, I would strongly suggest 1 year of operational expenses for a number of reasons, some quite obvious.

Goodluck!
